Chapter 281 Guess
Luo Qingge bowed to Madam Cai and said, "The first bow I'm making is to thank Prince Xie for saving me that night. In order to protect me, he was shot in the shoulder by an assassin and was seriously injured."
"Although I helped bandage his wounds in the inn later, I still feel that I owe him a favor. If I have the chance in the future, I will definitely repay him."
She bowed again and continued, "The second bow is because I was prejudiced against Master Xie before."
"I have always thought that he is an unlearned, idle dandy who has no skills and only knows how to eat, drink and have fun, relying on you two old people to support him."
"But when the princess was surrounded by assassins and her life was at stake, it was Prince Xie who stepped forward and fought against hundreds of assassins on his own."
"It was then that I realized that he was not as useless as I thought. At least in some aspects, he was a very responsible man. He did not abandon me and run for my life."
Luo Qingge had a faint smile on her lips. Even now she could still clearly remember the heroic aura that Xie Liuzheng showed when he took action.
His figure shuttled through the darkness like a ghost, and wherever his sword passed, the killer's blood splattered into the sky.
Xie Liuzheng at that time was so handsome that Luo Qingge was at a loss for words to describe.
She felt that no words she could think of were enough to express the shock and amazement in her heart.
And before, no one else had given her this feeling except Luo Junhe, who was wearing silver armor and killing enemies on the battlefield.
Mrs. Cai's expression changed from confusion at first, to surprise, then to astonishment, and finally to shock.
For a moment, the expressions were brilliant.
She was a little bit unconvinced that Luo Qingge was talking about her son.
It’s because Xie Liuzheng has never been the kind of person who would meddle in other people’s affairs.
He looked heartless, but in fact he was extremely cold-hearted, not to mention that he also exposed his martial arts skills.
But Luo Qingge's words brought Mrs. Cai back to reality.
Only then did she remember that one afternoon last month, she had just talked to Xie Jinrong about how the little naughty Xie Liuzheng had gone crazy again last night and didn't know where he had gone last night and didn't come back all night.
As they were talking, a servant came to report that the prince had returned!
At that time, Xie Liuzheng's face was pale and he indeed came back with injuries all over his body.
The most seriously injured part was his shoulder, where a sharp weapon had pierced a large hole, with the flesh turned inside out and the bone visible.
However, what surprised the doctors was that although Xie Liuzheng's wound looked scary, it was treated very promptly. Not only did the bleeding stop, but it also did not get infected again.
However, the person who treated the wound was obviously not very professional.
Someone had tied a big, ugly bow on Xie Liuzheng's shoulder with gauze.
Mrs. Cai didn't think much about it at the time. She always thought that it was Meng Fan who bandaged Xie Liuzheng. She wanted to help him remove the bandage and change the medicine, but he refused.
As soon as the doctor touched the bow on Xie Liuzheng's shoulder, he started crying out in pain.
Mrs. Cai was speechless.
Finally, Ji Yuntang sent someone to deliver medicine for his injuries, and Xie Liuzheng agreed to let the doctor take off his bow tie.
When the servant came to clean the room, he accidentally threw away the bloody gauze.
Because of this, Xie Liuzheng did not eat or drink for three days.
It was also because of this incident that Xie Jinrong and his son Xie Liuzheng had a big fight.
After the quarrel, Xie Jinrong felt more and more that his son was abnormal.
Not only is his sexual orientation abnormal, but his mental state is also abnormal.
What normal man would like bow ties?
Not to mention that thing is so ugly.
When the bow was removed, it turned out to be a piece of ordinary gauze, which was not only stained with blood, but also had various drug residues.
Even so, Xie Liuzheng still kept it like a treasure and wouldn't let anyone throw it away.
Isn't this a brain disease?
Mrs. Cai sat in a chair, her chin resting on her elbow, thinking.
If Luo Qingge had helped Xie Liuzheng tie that ugly bow, then perhaps everything could be explained.
Xie Liuzheng was reluctant to throw it away for only two reasons.
First, he likes Luo Qingge and is attracted to her, so he treasures the things she leaves behind.
Second, that was evidence of his injury, and he wanted to stay and ask Luo Qingge for compensation.
But the second possibility is obviously not true.
It was because Mrs. Cai remembered that she asked Xie Liuzheng where all these injuries came from.
He said: "I encountered a group of wild dogs that didn't understand human language while walking. I had a fight with them outside and accidentally got a little injured when I killed the dogs."
Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Xie Liuzheng was joking.
Later, under Xie Jinrong's repeated questioning, Xie Liuzheng said that he had encountered a killer and escaped death to save his life.
However, he did not mention Luo Qingge at all.
Even though the next day the Dali Temple revealed that the Ninth Princess and Master Xie had been assassinated together, Xie Liuzheng saved the Ninth Princess.
He also did not spread the word that he was injured because he helped Luo Qingge block the arrow.
He just said that his martial arts skills were not as good as others and he was accidentally hit by an arrow.
Now, if Luo Qingge hadn't taken the initiative to bring up this matter, Mrs. Cai would have had no idea how he got injured.
This shows how dangerous the situation was that night.
Luo Qingge saw that Madam Xie was frowning and didn't know what she was thinking, so she bent down and bowed to her for the third time.
"This third bow is to apologize to Master Xie."
"I should have personally gone to the Rongguo Mansion to express my gratitude a long time ago, but I was afraid that it would be too abrupt and disturb the Duke and his wife's meditation, so I never went."
"I would like to express my deepest apology to Mrs. Cai and express my regrets. I hope you can forgive me."
What Luo Qingge didn't say was that she had actually already prepared the gifts for going to the Duke Rong's Mansion.
But at the critical moment, she didn't know how to face Xie Liuzheng.
Luo Qingge was very conflicted, she couldn't figure out what her feelings were towards Xie Liuzheng.
In short, it is very complicated and unsolvable.
Mrs. Cai came to her senses and grabbed Luo Qingge's hand.
She changed from her previous depressed look and looked even more excited than before.
She opened her mouth and said, "Ninth Princess, I have something to ask you, but I don't know whether I should ask you or not."
Luo Qingge said softly: "Madam, please feel free to tell me. As long as I know it, I will tell you."
"Princess Nine said she bandaged Zheng'er, but did you touch his body? Did he show any signs of discomfort towards you?"
Luo Qingge nodded and shook her head, which made Mrs. Cai very nervous.
She had a bold guess in her mind, but Luo Qingge's answer was needed to confirm this guess.
"Yes, and more than once."
"When I was in the Night King's Mansion, I often beat him. I think he is quite lively and there is nothing wrong with him."
